Facilitating and encouraging awareness and knowledge among the community airport group members

The Community Airports Group Ontario (CAGO) is an organization of 23 small local and regional airports with similar interests. It was formed for the purposes of raising the technical knowledge and awareness of its members and to enhance airport operating services. The inaugural meeting of the airports group took place October 11, 2001 at the Saugeen Municipal Airport.

Background and Objectives

The concept for the Community Airports Group Ontario dates back to the early 1990's with several airport managers jointly participating in a number of initiatives such as the sharing of information and resources on an informal basis. The aim of the Community Airport Group Ontario is to formalize these and other activities. The principal objectives are to facilitate and encourage the exchange of information, awareness and knowledge among the Community Airports Group Ontario members, and to facilitate and coordinate group sponsored airport planning, development, maintenance, and operational initiatives.
